CRANBERRY SALSA (CANNED)
I love salsa and am always experimenting with combinations of veggies and fruits. Fresh salsa is great but it is also nice to be able to can all that fresh goodness from the garden to eat in the dead of winter. Being from Wisconsin, I just had to come up with a recipe using cranberries and this is what I came up with. I use a mixture of hot peppers and seed some but not all of them since I like things hot. I also measure the cranberries, then give them a rough chop in my food processor before adding them. I think I will add some fresh lime juice to my next batch for a little flavor boost.

CRANBERRY SAUCE SALSA
Don't toss that little bit of cranberry sauce leftover from Thanksgiving dinner. This recipe, which we developed for a special kids' edition of The New York Times, calls for making it into a savory-sweet salsa that everyone will love. Just add some chopped fresh tomatoes, onion, garlic, cilantro and jalapeño to prepared whole cranberry sauce (not the jellied stuff). Stir in some lime zest and juice, and a sprinkling of chile powder, cumin and cayenne. Serve with enchilada pie or tortilla chips, and consider stocking canned cranberry sauce in your cabinet all year long.
